January 17, 2023 - This is drinking just wonderfully at the moment. Classic California mountain cab. The tannins are fully resolved and the wine is on a mature plateau without yet having started to slide. Complex tertiary notes are in perfect harmony with dark plum and berry fruit. For my taste this likely won't improve but should hold up for several more years. Excellent.
